Exceptional Expectations dedication, kindness and expertise have really made a difference in our son's life and ours. Since your agency started working with him, he is less anxious, more willing to try new things, verbally able to express his basic wants and needs, academically at or above peer level, more confident, able to follow simple directions, continuously making improvements with concentration, attention, and task completion, tremendously better at making transitions with a classroom routine.
